Voting for Smith

Dear Editor:

We need a law enforcement partner.

Why would someone vote for Carl Smith for sheriff? Well, first there is his experience, and I mean real world 21st century experience. Then there is management, budgetary, successful grant writing, and cooperation with neighboring and national policing agencies, all of which Carl has been involved with. Carl strongly believes in Community Oriented Policing, where the citizens, deputies, and the sheriff, make an extra effort to know their partners (the citizens). If you feel the sheriff’s department is great the way it is, and you are content with the status quo, then it probably doesn’t make any difference who the sheriff is. But I want more, that’s why I’m voting for Carl Smith for sheriff.
